Pigua is a black chihuahua mix who was brought to Animal Control when her owner became ill. She is around 5 yrs old, and weighs 10lbs. She has tons of energy and loves to be the center of attention. Pigua enjoys going for walks, sitting on laps, and giving loads of kisses. If you want a bundle of snuggly energy to liven up your home, she is the perfect dog for you!

Pigua is presently a resident at Street Tails Animal Rescue. STAR is an animal rescue who's mission is to help the homeless, the unwanted, and the special needs animals of the area by helping them receive proper medical attention, educating the public on the importance of spaying and neutering, and by placing these animals in suitable, compatible, and most of all, loving homes.

Please contact Street Tails Animal Rescue if you're interested in visiting or adopting Pigua or any of their other animals.
